Her Majesty's Theatre

This is a historic and iconic Art Deco theatre in the Melbourne Theatre district. It has really nice comfy velvety red seats and well spaced and hosts a number of musicals which are shown throughout the year. The snack bar is decent and it is also within walking distance to a 7-eleven around the corner if you are feeling peckish during the intermission. Make sure you come on time if you are seated in the middle as there is not a lot of room between seats.

This is a gorgeous theatre that forms part of Melbourne's cultural and historical heritage. It is a great venue apart from the fact that the aisles and seats are fairly narrow (were we all smaller once?) This spoils intermission a bit as it's a hassle to get up! Overall, a lovely theatre.

Her Majesty's Theatre, situated on Exhibition Street in Melbourne City, is a beautiful iconic theatre. (Albeit it with some structural changes after an earlier fire in the early 1900's - and a changing identity with a number of name changes throughout its history.) One can feel the history as you enter, and can't help but be swept back to earlier days, and the famous performances of Anna Pavlova and the many other timeless performances it has proudly staged. In terms of seating, it is certainly very compact, - and I've noted that people are far less likely to stretch their legs during interval at this theatre, than other heritage theatres situated within the city. Moving to the centre of any row is not an easy task, and this is reflected with people remaining in their seats during interval. (I would certainly recommend avoiding the stress of falling into stranger's laps, by arriving early, if you have a centre row seat.) If you are taking someone elderly to a production, I would highly ...read more

Another of Melbourne's beautiful old theatres. Her majesty's has an intimate feel to it. The seating is a bit close and could be hard for some people to get in and out of. You feel such a part of the show as you are quite close to the stage from most seats.

Very informative and took me to exactly where I wanted to go!
